Suppose the mean infectious period for a certain disease is 37 days. What is the removal rate if time steps of 1 day are used? What is the removal rate is time steps of 1 week are used?
Incubation period is the time elapsed between exposure to a pathogenic organism, a chemical, or radiation, and when symptoms and signs are first apparent. In a typical infectious disease, incubation period signifies the period taken by the multiplying organism to reach a threshold necessary to produce symptoms in the host. The transmission rate of many acute infectious diseases varies significantly in time, but the underlying mechanisms are usually uncertain. They may include seasonal changes in the environment, contact rate, immune system response, etc. The transmission rate has been thought difficult to measure directly. Steps of 1 day or 1 week will not make any difference in removal rate, because here the infection period of this disease is 37 days. So during this 37 days the host can spread this disease. Hence it is advised isolation for a period for 37 days.

Suppose that, over a certain period of time, a parent monitors how many texts their 17 year old son sends each day. The average amount of texts sent a day is 42, and the standard deviation is 12 (a) If one day from this time period is randomly selected, and the number of texts for that day is one standard deviation above the population mean, how many texts were sent that day? 54 (whole number) Now, suppose random samples of...
. An infectious disease is introduced into a school with 1200 students. Fortunately, the disease only lasts a few days, and all of the infected students recover and then have long lasting immunity against the disease (they can only be infected once). The incidence rate for the outbreak, which begins the first week of school, remains constant throughout the school year at 1 new case per hundred uninfected students per week. By the end of the forty-week school year, how...
(3) Suppose the length of stay in a chronic disease hospital of a certain type of patient has the mean of 60 days with a standard deviation of 15 days. It is reasonably to assume an approximately normal distribution of the lengths of stay (a) If one patient is selected from this group at random, what the probability that this patient will have a length of stay between 50 and 90 days? at is selected from this group at random,...
Suppose an individual is exposed to a disease 17 days ago, the symptoms of the disease began 5 days ago and the disease lasts for 14 days. What is the incubation period for this disease? 17 days 5 days 19 days 36 days 12 days Please show work with equation

Suppose that over a certain period, the percent change in the daily adjusted close of the S&P500 can be approximately modeled as a normal random variable with mean 0.04% and standard deviation 0.92%. a) What is the probability that on a randomly selected day the change is between -1.3% and +1.7%? b) On how many of 100 randomly selected days in this period would a change above +2.0% would be expected? c) What is the 85th percentile of this variable?...
